Standing at roughly 5'0, Dalon isn't exactly the epitome of strength and muscle. In fact, he is actually quite slender and petite, weighing in at only about 100 pounds. He tends to wear sweaters and jeans more often than not and no matter how much he tries, his blonde locks always stick up in random places on his head. Aside from the vine markings winding around his body, Dalon's skin is without blemishes safe for a few scars on his back and sides. He hides his multicolored eyes behind a bandage he wraps around this head and he never leaves his room without it securely in place. He tends to get rather paranoid when people start touching the bandage and will result to slapping hands away for everyones safety.

Quiet and reserved, Dalon tends to hide behind the wall he's built around himself. He tries to keep his distance from others and does his best to keep them from getting too close to him. As a result, he can be quite stand-offish and at times will resort to rudeness to drive people away from him. But that is not the real Dalon, this is only a mask, a shell he projects to the outside world. The real Dalon is kind and caring, someone who just wants to be accepted for who he is. He doesn't want to live in fear of himself but unfortunately reality is a cruel master.

Long ago, so long that the exact date was forgotten, a man spurred a Goddess. The Goddess wanted the man to herself but he rejected her for another woman. Incensed, the Goddess flung a curse down upon the man, that whosoever meet his gaze was turned to solid rock for all eternity. The man was cast out of society in fear of this terrifying ability forced upon him. He wandered and roamed, believing that he would die alone forever. However, fate seemed to smile upon him and he realized that by binding his eyes with cloth, the curse's affects were nulled. He managed to settle down with a wife and have children. But fate wasn't quite through with him just yet. He was given a son but all was not well. For as soon as his sons cry rent the air, the man found the curse had left him. Believing that the Goddess had finally granted him mercy, he began to live his life happily. However on his sons 10th birthday, his son's eyes turned an abnormal color and vine-like tattoos spread across his body. But the worst discovery of all was what happened when his son looked at his mother.

And so it was discovered that when the one cursed bares children, they are relieved of the curse which is then passed down unto their children.

And the cycle continues.

Dalon's parents had died soon after he was born and so he lived the first ten years of his life in ignorant bliss. But the harsh reality of his fate was brought to light when he opened his eyes on his tenth birthday to find they had changed color and he now had strange markings spread across his body. He had run down to show his foster mother only to become confused and scared when she turned to stone before his very eyes. His father soon fell victim to the same fate. As did anyone who meet his gaze. Viewed as a monstrosity, Dalon was run from the town. He discovered early on that if no one was able to meet his gaze directly, they didn't turn to stone. And so he found some bandages and covered his eyes from the world. However, the surprises didn't end there.

Dalon soon discovered he had another ability, a power to use a form of echo-location. If a sound is made, it ripples across every surface, creating a brief map of his surroundings in his minds eye. However, only sound can enable him to be able to view his surroundings. Otherwise he is left in darkness.

As he wandered, Dalon began to hear whispers of a house that welcomed strange people like him. Curious and with a small hope in his heart of a place where he could finally belong, Dalon's story begins.

OTᕼEᖇ

Since he relies on his other senses more so than his sight, they are significantly stronger than what they would normally be if he were to use all five senses.

I... had to look this up. I hadn't realized that was a movie. But my goal was to have all adults, otherwise it'd be a bit odd to have someone's parents let them go live with a bunch of strangers. Especially a human with supernatural beings.


Not live at the house though. Visit. She'd be part time for the most part. In fact, a big plot point setup for me, was the overloomimg conflict of Marie potentially leaving Independence due to her mother.

Anyway, I originally thought of and planned for both Marie and Emmy, and only planned/wanted to do both. I believe both compliment each other in expression and having both would be my preference to play. As such, I'm kind of only excited to play with both characters. Scrap Marie, not interested anymore. So if Marie can't strictly be approved, then I'm not interested in joining anymore. Your call, ultimately though.

Couple quick questions: how big is she? Cause like the house isn't that big and it may suck if she's like living outside with her head poked through a window or something. And can she speak to others?


Probably not that large, I was thinking more along the lines of "twelve feet long" rather than "massive fire-breathing terror of the skies"; partly so she can fit in the house and partly to explain why the existence of the supernatural is something of a secret until relatively recently. A great big dragon is a lot harder to keep the existence of under wraps.

As for talking - yes. I think I mentioned in the personality bit that she'd much prefer trying to talk through problems, rather than resorting to the "proper" dragon-y problem solving technique of trying to set whatever it was that was bothering them on fire.

You have caught my interest. If still accepting and life allows it I might make a character.

Okay, so I started a character sheet this morning but so far I haven't had a lot of luck putting one together. Mainly fitting the character I want to use into A more modern Role-Play. Which can be done but it's harder then I thought it would be, that and I can't find or make a picture that works well with my character. I have work coming up, I will try more later.

Hey guys, sorry I disappeared for a little. I wanna appointed like 1-2 co-gms to keep this thing moving. I just had some family stuff come up and I'm not sure how much I'll be on. It may not affect it at all starting tomorrow honestly. But I still would like someone to kinda keep watch in case I drop off the face of the earth for a while.

So raise your hand if you wanna be a co-gm.

@Hylozoist Alright, as long as everyone else can move around her and she isn't stuck outside! I had definitely misunderstood the talking thing. I thought you had meant kind of like how other animals can communicate with each other, but humans can't understand them. But that makes sense. You can move her to the characters tab.

@FallingSkies Oh darn. I don't think I'd be comfortable being co-gm seeing as we haven't started yet. It'd be easier once we get a feel for the RP y'know? (if that makes sense)

Other than that I don't mind, real life stuff always has to come first so I completely understand if you have to be away sometimes for family reasons.

Edit: Also I added a paragraph to my history over at the character section. I thought it was a bit lack-lusted in explaining Robyn's weaknesses earlier but I didn't know where to bake in sufficient info so I just kinda... Added the paragraph. Ohwell

I'm of a similar mind; I would be happier volunteering for the role once things have got going, as I know that my preferred style of GM'ing (ie, light-hearted and / or kinda badly) might not match the tone / theme of the game once it's started.

Alright, well I should be back. I would still like some co-gms once we get started, but for now I would just like to know who all is still around? Sorry guys, I really hope nothing like that comes up again.

Dallon looks good to me. Honestly I'm super interested to see him in this setting. He's an interesting character. Just make sure he doesn't turn anyone to stone without permission.

Hello, I would like to make a character if you are still accepting. I also want to draw my character's picture which will take a little bit of time, so can I just write a description instead?
